Snyder: Iran, Israel, WWIII? ZH: Israel’s Aerial ‘Laser Sword’?
Iranian Shahab 3 missiles (
Michael Synder posted the following:
Iran Warns That Israel Will Be Bombed If …
We are at one of the most critical turning points in modern world history, and whether or not we will be able to avoid World War 3 will come down to a handful of key decisions that Donald Trump will make over the next few days. If he makes the wrong decisions, he will be second guessed for generations to come …
In particular, the Iranians have repeatedly warned that they will bomb Israel if there is U.S. retaliation.
And if Iran attacks Israel, the Israelis will likely respond with overwhelming force, and once that happens nobody is going to be able to stop a major war from happening.
This could literally be our last chance to avoid World War 3, and hopefully President Trump is getting some really good advice from the people around him.
Because I believe that the Iranian threats are very real. Shortly after launching missiles at U.S. bases in Iraq, the Iranians threatened “to bomb Israel and Dubai if the United States retaliates”…
On Sunday, the head of Iran’s Expediency Council warned that if Trump escalates the conflict, Iran would “strike Haifa, Tel Aviv and wipe out Israel”…
And then on Monday, the chairman of the Iranian Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission said that the nation of Israel would be wiped out in “half an hour” if the U.S. attacks Iran again…
Even though this is a conflict between the United States and Iran, clearly the Iranians want to make this about Israel as well. …
Israel has been preparing for a war with Iran for a very long time, and the Israelis would likely strike back with such force that it would absolutely stun the entire planet. http://endoftheamericandream.com/archives/iran-warns-that-israel-will-be-bombed-if-trump-responds-to-the-missile-attack-on-u-s-bases-in-iraq
Yes, we may be at a critical turning point in modern history. Yes, Israel has been preparing. Yes, Israel may hit back so hard that the world will be stunned.
But no, this is NOT WWIII.
As far as Iran’s claim to knock out Israel in less than an hour, consider that Israel is claiming it has another defensive system:
Israel Unveils Breakthrough Aerial ‘Laser Sword’ Missile Intercept System
January 10, 2020
“It’s a game-changer” — declared Gen. Yaniv Rotem, head of Israel’s Defense Ministry’s (IDF) Directorate of Research and Development, in a Jerusalem Post interview profiling the county’s newest breakthrough laser targeting technology.
The IDF unveiled what’s being described as an aerial ‘laser sword’ which can take out multiple types of airborne threats such as drones, rockets and anti-tank missiles. …
Specifically the latest breakthrough touted by the ministry relates to the precision and concentration of the laser beam’s power.
“According to Oster, the ministry was able to take several laser beams and, with an advanced algorithm, connect them to get one strong beam that is able to intercept and take down a variety of threats,” according to the report, citing the Defense Ministry’s Directorate of Research and Development head of the Optronics Department, Dubi Oster. …
Defense Minister Naftali Bennett referenced the high-tech system as a defense “laser sword. He stated to the Jerusalem Post that “we will add a laser sword when dealing with threats from the North or the South,” adding that “The enemies of Israel better not test our resolve or our abilities.” https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/israel-unveils-breakthrough-aerial-laser-sword-missile-intercept-system
The Bible contains the following caution:
‘Let not the one who puts on his armor boast like the one who takes it off.’ (1 Kings 20:11)
Putting on armor does not mean one cannot be defeated or at least greatly harmed.
Israel’s aerial laser sword looks to augment, or even potentially replace, its “Iron Dome” system. Iron is essentially an anti-missile system intended to block rockets and missiles from hitting targets within Israel.
‘Iron Dome’ missile (Israel Defense Forces)
Here is some of what Wikipedia says about the Iron Dome:
Iron Dome (Hebrew: כִּפַּת בַּרְזֶל, kippat barzel) is a mobile all-weather air defense system[8] developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries.[7] The system is designed to intercept and destroy short-range rockets and artillery shells fired from distances of 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) to 70 kilometres (43 mi) away and whose trajectory would take them to an Israeli populated area.[9][10] Israel hopes to increase the range of Iron Dome’s interceptions, from the current maximum of 70 kilometres (43 mi) to 250 kilometres (160 mi) and make it more versatile so that it could intercept rockets coming from two directions simultaneously.[11] (Iron Dome, Wikipedia, accessed 01/10/20)
Israel has mainly used the Iron Dome to deal with rockets from Gaza. But this, plus some version of its laser sword would probably be used in attacks from Iran.
We may very well see a regional war–or worse, a war that could possibly lead to the deal of Daniel 9:27 and the seven year countdown to the end.
The Bible shows that God will allow what looks to be a Iranian-Syrian confederation, to strike the nation of Israel:
1 The burden against the Valley of Vision.
What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops, 2 You who are full of noise, A tumultuous city, a joyous city? Your slain men are not slain with the sword, Nor dead in battle. 3 All your rulers have fled together; They are captured by the archers. All who are found in you are bound together; They have fled from afar. 4 Therefore I said, “Look away from me, I will weep bitterly; Do not labor to comfort me Because of the plundering of the daughter of my people.”
5 For it is a day of trouble and treading down and perplexity By the Lord God of hosts In the Valley of Vision — Breaking down the walls And of crying to the mountain. 6 Elam bore the quiver With chariots of men and horsemen, And Kir uncovered the shield. 7 It shall come to pass that your choicest valleys Shall be full of chariots,And the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate.
8 He removed the protection of Judah. You looked in that day to the armor of the House of the Forest; 9 You also saw the damage to the city of David, That it was great; And you gathered together the waters of the lower pool. 10 You numbered the houses of Jerusalem, And the houses you broke down To fortify the wall. 11 You also made a reservoir between the two walls For the water of the old pool. But you did not look to its Maker, Nor did you have respect for Him who fashioned it long ago.
12 And in that day the Lord God of hosts Called for weeping and for mourning,For baldness and for girding with sackcloth. 13 But instead, joy and gladness, Slaying oxen and killing sheep, Eating meat and drinking wine: “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!”
14 Then it was revealed in my hearing by the Lord of hosts,”Surely for this iniquity there will be no atonement for you, Even to your death,” says the Lord God of hosts. (Isaiah 22:1-14 NKJV)
Elam, as mentioned before, seems to be a reference to at least some in Iran. The Bible tells that after Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria took over Damascus, he moved Syrians to Kir. While this does not mean that Kir must (or must only) be a reference to Syria, the fact that Syria is an ally of Iran is interesting.
The Bible tells of a time when Kir will be destroyed (Isaiah 15:1b) and also says that Syria’s capital Damascus will be destroyed (Isaiah 17:1).
In Isaiah 22: 8, “Judah” is a reference to those in the land commonly called Israel–God will allow Israel to be attacked! In Isaiah 22:9, consider that “the damage to the city of David” is a reference to at least part of Jerusalem–and notice that the damage will be great. This, in turn, would be expected to result in a massive Israeli, possibly with US involvement, attack against Iran and its allies, like Syria.
More death and destruction is prophesied to come.

Is Donald Trump fulfilling Ezekiel 32 related to Iran?
On December 27, 2019, Iranian-connected individuals were believed to have killed an American contractor. On Sunday, December 29, 2019, US President Donald Trump ordered a strike in Iraq that killed dozens of Iranian supporting Iraqis. The next two days there were protests at the US Embassy in Iraq. Then on January 2, 2020, US President authorized a drone strike that killed Iranian General Qasem Soleimani, a top commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, the Baghdad International Airport. Could this be related to prophecies such as Ezekiel 32:24-25? What about Ezekiel 38? Is Iran (and allies like Syria) prophesied to attack Israel and cause damage to Jerusalem? Could Iran use EMP weapons and/or terrorism in retaliation against the US? Will Iran one day be neutralized? Will Ezekiel 32 be completely fulfilled in the future? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more.
Here is a link to our video: Is Donald Trump fulfilling Ezekiel 32 related to Iran?
Rockets, the Iron Dome, and laser swords are NOT the solution for the region.
The coming damage to Jerusalem would likely be a prelude to a temporal peace in the region.
True peace will not come until after the return of Jesus Christ and the establishment of the Kingdom of God.
